Last 10 years

Today Yahoo celebrated its 10th birthday. When I first went online, there were just three sites worth remembering - hotmail, yahoo and google. After Microsoft acquired Hotmail, it was yahoo all the way atleast till google came up. Google is best for searches and yahoo is best for its syndication of content. The email service is a good tie between the two.

To celebrate its birthday, yahoo had a surprise for all its registerd users in select countries like US, UK, Australia etc. They were provided with online gift coupons which can be exchanged for Baskin and Robin Icecreams. Though I wonder how many will touch the icecream, when its snowing in UK and US. As expected, it isnt available in India.

Meanwhile here is a collection of some important events in the last 10 years - Netrospective
